Sorry, it wasn't rude, it was a statement of fact pointing out an error 
on your part.  You may *think* you ran the code you posted, but in fact 
you could not have done so.    The code you posted will not run.  Not in 
any version of Python, past, present or future. Assigning to a literal
     1 = ...
makes no sense and produces a syntax error.   That's the only result you 
could have gotten.   If you think that's what you've done, then by all 
means post a screen-shot showing is how you came to that conclusion, and 
we'll correct you again.   But I'll guarantee with absolute certainty, 
that your posted Python program did not *run* "correctly" or incorrectly.

People on the group are willing to help with nearly anything, but it's 
all a volunteer effort.  You waste our time (either carelessly or 
maliciously) if you don't accurately post  your code and the results of 
running that code.

So please try again.  You *will* get help.  There are a number of other 
errors in your program also.  We can get to those once we know what code 
you are really running, and are sure that you know what it means to 
*run* it, and that you can correctly identify the results -- error or not.
